Learn jQuery, Save a Puppy

Learning jQuery 1.3 book coverLucky me was given the opportunity to review Learning jQuery 1.3, so that’s what I’m going to do in this post. You can buy the book via this link, and the full 12% referral commission I get from your purchase will be donated to the Humane Society of Louisiana.

But don’t go clicking and buying just because you like puppies. Read on to find out if this book is right for you, and there’s even a link to a free chapter at the bottom of this post so you can get a feel for it.

First off, a disclaimer: I’m not a hardcore programmer by any means. Functions and arguments and variable scopings make my head spin. I’m more of a jack-of-all-trades web developer who knows enough programming to hack away at some Ruby on Rails or PHP or jQuery and come away with something nice. Rarely something perfect, but nice nonetheless.

A quick update to Coda-Slider: unique classes for navigation tabs

UPDATE: (Oct. 26th, 2009): I’ve just released a new version of Coda-Slider. Check out the details here. The original version referred to in this post remains available for download.

So I finally found time to add a much-requested feature to Coda-Slider: Different classes for each tab. Now you can target individual tabs and give each one a different look. In the new demo, you’ll see that I just used different background colors to illustrate this feature, but of course you can use images if you like.As this is just a minor addition, I’m calling the updated version “Coda-Slider 1.1.1″. Makes sense to me.

Apologies again that I haven’t been able to respond to all your comments and emails regarding Coda-Slider. I hope you understand that it’s just something I put together for fun and experience, and it’s difficult to spend time maintaining it when I have paying jobs on offer.

Coda-Slider 1.1

UPDATE: (Oct. 26th, 2009): I’ve just released a new version of Coda-Slider. Check out the details here. The original version referred to in this post remains available for download.

It’s been about six weeks since I introduced a neat little jQuery plugin called Coda-Slider. It was well received, and I was delighted to see people incorporating it into their own projects in creative ways.

However, the original Coda-Slider had some bugs and lacked some features. After numerous requests, I’ve finally found time to make some improvements, and today I’m releasing Coda-Slider 1.1. Please check out the demo, and be sure to read the rest of this post for more info and details on customization.
